"James;  I saw a video on Youtube about Great Lakes. I can't believe I was in the same Navy. They wear athletic gear instead of uniforms. The boot camp is co-ed, and they treat the recruits a lot nicer. LOL"

"Even in 1970, everyday was undress blues or the dungaree/chambray uniform, no matter what the activity. We only wore shorts for swimming,
It was winter in GLakes, I think in summer they wore undress whites every activity."
